here's a question for everyone - what hole was the peak of your golf career? Essentially, if you had to point to one single hole that was your peak potential as a golfer, what would it be?

I've never had a hole in one. I've had about a dozen hole outs on par 4s for eagle, including 2 on the fly, but the best hole I've ever played was a birdie.

I made a birdie on #18 at Sandhills from the tips. 467 yard par 4, up the hill. I went driver, 4w and made a 20 footer for a walk-off birdie

I had an albatross on 3 at field club, and an eagle on 13 at the stadium course TPC Scottsdale, still no hole in one but have been as close as 2 inches at the knolls on the par 3 that goes over the creek on the front 9

About a year after I picked up golf, I drove the green on a short par 4 (240 yards or so). Remember being so excited at an eagle opportunity or even a birdie if things don't go well.

I fuckin five putted for double bogey

Hard to say but best golf shot I have is an albatross on 7 at Platteview. Should really be an eagle since it’s so short. Ironically on the next hole, a par 3 over water with OB left, my buddy hit one out off the tee and then dunked it for a par.

Most of the times I feel like I’ve reached my pinnacle when I take my medicine, punch out of trouble but still make par. Good golf isn’t making birdies. It’s avoiding the big numbers.

Nothing noteworthy, no aces or albatrosses here...I guess going to Jacksonville back in 2000 with the sole purpose of getting par on #17 at TPC Sawgrass, took a 6 the first day but managed to par it on the 2nd try when the pressure was on. Mission accomplished.

Started eagle-eagle on a short 4/short 5 in a 9-hole quarterfinal match play team event down in Australia. Too bad it didn’t count as 4 under and instead we were only 2 up. Lost the match on the final hole.
